Sometimes iPhoneography can give me the impression that I almost don't need a camera. 

These pictures from the like of Hipstamatic and Instagram are really making and taking photography to a different level. We have access to these cameras 24/7, and the images are able to be shared at the same rate. I have found a new found fondness for my iPhone since my DSLR has been getting serviced (more on that later). 

Need to work out how to develop your film easy!!

I have started on the track to developing my own Black and White film. It's always interested me. It always seemed really hard and to much effort.. Until Now..

There are many many many detailed videos on You Tube now days on how to load your film onto the rolls and get them into the tank for developing. But developing times and temp, chemical dilution rates, these are where young and new players to the game can fall down..

The great team over at Digital Truth have a wonderful database that can be searched by anyone. I has a list of arguably every black and white film made, the developer to use, dilution rate, and time it will take at the specified temperature. But if your like me, and you can't be bothered with all that paper mumbo jumbo get the app!! That's right there is an app!!

All you need to do is (using your iPhone on Android Device) is select you film, then your developer, and then you will get all the information you will ever need. Dilution Rates, Times, Temps, and even a section for Notes. There is a built in timer that is stepped for every step of the act with an audible and visual notification to go on to the next step. 

I do love this app, but think the Hypo step should be an option when selecting roll film over sheet film. Not everyone is going to use Hypo or Wetter now days for roll film. 

If you need a hand in the developing stakes, this app is a MUST HAVE!!

More iPhoneography

You can take a picture with any kind of phone now days, but so many of us have an iPhone it has spawned its own term... iPhoneography..

There are a multitude of programs, camera analogues, labs, styles, etc that your phone can do pretty much anything!!

I plan now on producing a series of photos based on this new world photography scene..

Well I have t say that this seems to have taken on a new idea.

iPhoneography has come along in leaps and bounds with so many different apps available to take stunning photos.

I used an app called Camera Bag for this one. It has many different styles and can be edited slightly depending on the look you want. This was done using the "Silver" filter.
